Séraphine Café

TastingVaries
Cellar doorOpen Tue–Sun
BookingsWalk-ins welcome

Séraphine Café is a licensed cafe at the rear of Maitland Regional Art Gallery in the Maitland CBD, with its own entrance on James Street. The focus is local wine and produce, across breakfast, lunch, light meals, coffee and cakes, with a glass of regional wine if you want one. It opens Tuesday to Sunday from 8am to 2pm, closed on Mondays.

The gallery is the reason to build a visit around it: its exhibition spaces run past 7,000 works and stay free to enter, so a coffee or lunch pairs with an hour among the art. Sitting in Maitland rather than the vineyards, it suits a stop on the way in or out of the region rather than a day among the cellar doors, and no booking is needed. The cafe is a straightforward daytime stop, closing mid-afternoon.
